Doctor Who Coming to Minecraft

To celebrate the new season of Doctor Who, Microsoft, the BBC, and Mojang are joining forces to bring characters from the show to the Xbox 360 version of Minecraft.

Several downloadable character packs are in the works. The first one will be available in September, and will offer a blocky version of the latest Doctor, played by Peter Capaldi, along with five other Doctors from the 50-year history of the franchise. It will also include their companions and the villainous Daleks. The first pack will set you back $3.

Keep your fingers crossed that the Doctor Who content will also come to the Xbox One version of Minecraft, which will launch soon.
